Baghdad: Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi affirmed that his country, in coordination with its mediation partners, the State of Qatar and the United States, is continuing its intensive efforts for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.

Addressing the 34th Arab summit, held in Baghdad today, El-Sisi said that this summit is being held at a historic moment, as the region faces complex challenges.

He added that the Palestinian people have been subjected to systematic crimes and brutal practices for more than a year and a half, aimed at obliterating and annihilating them and ending their presence in the Gaza Strip, in an attempt to force their people to flee and leave by force under the horrors of war.

El-Sisi called on the international community, led by the United States, to take decisive steps to end this humanitarian catastrophe.

He also pointed out that the Arab nation faces fateful challenges, as Sudan is passing through a dangerous turning point that threatens its unity and stability, which requires urgent action to ensure the preservation of the unity of Sudanese territory and its national institutions.
